\015 I have M305D S4830 laptop. I put it to sleep in the night. In the morning when i tried to turn it on, it wouldnt start. The light on the switch turns on and it charges the battery fine, but no HDD activity(but it does spin up and stay), no screen, nothing. The fan turns on and then turns off in 1 sec and then just the power indicator lights stay on... i also checked cmos battery, removed it and put it back.its voltage is also fine...checked with RAM/without it, with hdd/ without it, with dvd drive/ without it...still same...i suppose the bios should kick in without any of these things, right? any help will be appreciated in debugging the fault...thanks!!\015

Hello PPL! Maybe this WILL HELP you! I HAD absolutely the same problem >> 3 months of god **** stress, didn't find any solution, till one day i found on my Recovery CDs one note!! >> It sounds like:"BEFORE pressing power button, HOLD 'C' button and while Holding 'C' button push POWER Button ONCE!! to start Laptop, KEEP Holding 'C' button!!! untill appears TOSHIBA screen!" then release 'C'. After that, it will appear "Operating System not Found">>then just do a restart by pushing Power Button and Start again! For me, It Worked!! and i'm god **** happy now)...let me know if it Helped you, Good Luck!

Same problem here.. Used my laptop like I would normally, but I don't remember if I Hibernated or did a full Shutdown. Anyway a couple of hours later I tried to turn it on with no luck--it won't boot. \015\0121) The on/off button, battery, and wifi would light up but that's it. \015\0122) The HD light would probably blink once.\015\0123) Caps lock will not light up\015\012\015\012After reading some tips, I left the laptop un-powered (no battery/plug) for about 5 hours. Powered it only through AC, no DVD drive, and still no luck. Took the memory out, swapped HD, tried a different AC adapter, and still doesn't work. \015\012\015\012My only hope is to leave it without power longer and try it again. Maybe without the cmos battery.

If you guys have had this issue and was able to fix it, please advice.\015\012\015\012Thanks!

A friend of mine asked me to put his Toshiba Satellite M35X S-109 back together for him after someone had it in pieces and tried to put it back together. I think it may be f*#ked. I have gotten it put back together, but cannot power it up! When I plug it into the AC adapter and try to power it on, I have a green light for the plug, no light in the middle and a flashing red/orange light for the battery. It really does want to power up (fan kicks on for a second) but just wont. The plug I have is
